The Dungeon Youth Services in Ballajura offer a variety of activities to allow youth to connect with each other and the staff, as they would be more willing to talk with them if they feel commutable around the staff.

Some of the activities include :
pool table, Wii U, Basketball, Sport equipment, ping pong, soccer table and an arcade gaming console with retro games, but the best thing is the have free food and drinks available for the youth, so they know they have at lest had something to eat before going home. With these sorts of activities, it allows the youth to do what ever they like when the like to. It allows the youth to create challenges between them or make teams to compete between each other.

There are some external recreational activities provided by external professionals.

Dungeon Youth Services also provide a holiday program. this features specific activities such as sporting tournaments, gaming tournaments, Minecraft camps, overnight camps, graffiti workshops and more. With having competitions between other youth services, it allows networking between the youth and youth services. If one youth service run an activity that is successful it could mean another youth service runs the same or similar activity and the youth enjoy it as well. This also means that the youth are pre occupied and don't have time to be mischief and it also allows community development. (Cooper, 2012 & Butters &Newell, 1978) .  Most of these activities are free or a low charge.

With the holidays there is also more drop in sessions, as it allows the youth to stay out of trouble and in a safe place. It also allows the youth to possibly grow in the way of either education or develop personal skills that will allow the to grow on the next term and allows hem to do the activities that promote character building with in the youth. (Cooper, 2012 & Butters &Newell, 1978).

They used to have funding but due to the funding cuts it has affected their Junior Drop in sessions in Ballajura. A GO FUND me page has been set-up where donations are greatly appreciated.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the Dungeon Services I a great opportunity for the youth to stay connecter with each other and their community. To have such a organisation in  Ballajura and surrounding area allow the youth to find a safe environment where they can escape the harsh realities of life or talk to people about their situation. It also allows the youth to network with one another and create friendships.

The Swan City Youth Services (SCYS) Midland, provide educational, recreational, art and music programs to allow the youth to strive in any activity they wish too.

# data[].attributes.body
SCYS overall age rang is 12-25 year olds, but some activities only allow you to participate in specific age groups. For example one of the certificate courses available you have to be between 16-25 years of age.

# data[].attributes.body
They have main funding through grants, partnerships and donations.
Some of their programs cost to do it where as others are free.
For example their Lady talks are free but only run if there is enough funding but the certificate course costs to do it.

# data[].attributes.body
The activities provided range from Urban art to Certificates.
Polytechnic West Outreach Program for 16-25 year olds, provide services to youth t hat have disengaged in school and it allows them to still get a basic mark for General Education for Adults II. This runs for 3 days every week and it is a payment course. This program allows the youth to take a step towards self-development in their own time.

The music program that is at SCYS allows the youth to be creative in their own ways. At the end of the year a CD is produced form the Service, with some of the youths work on it. This allows youth to be creative with their music. Most songs these days are related to personal life stories or something along those lines and if the artist can express their feeling through the song it is better then nothing. This allows the youth to build their character and through the release of the CD, it allows community development with the recognition of the community buying the CD and supporting the Swan City Youth Services. (Cooper,  2012 & Butters &Newell, 1978).

The Substance Abuse program which is funded by the Department of Health and Aging, allows the youth who are affected by drug use to access counselling, case management and court support. The youth workers will support the youth member throughout the process. With their partnerships with various government businesses the youth are fast tracked to detox programs. Even if the parents wish not to do this program it allows the youth to go through the program an learn about what the substances can do to the body. This allows the youth to take a step into their own learning and make changes n their own life.

The cooking program is one of the best ways the youth interact with each other. As they are all learning together they ask each other questions and have a laugh. Once they have learnt to cook a quick and easy healthy meal they sit around a large table like a family and enjoy the meal together. This could mean that if the youth member doesn't have a family structure back at hoe they can be apart of one. This also allows the youth member to gain life skills and grow as a person. With cooking different meals, the may have a selection from different countries, which allow cultural adjustment in away of them learning different foods. (Cooper, 2012 & Butters &Newell, 1978).

The Urban Art program allows the youth to express themselves and find an art form they enjoy. Along they was they also broaden their art knowledge. If the youth shows potential the council / service with either allocate a wall in the community for them to paint and decorate or commission walls for them to decorate or paint. This allows the youth member to be creative in anyway they wish to be. This may be in conjunction with multiple different art areas which allows the youth to use self expression and build or express their character through paintings. (Cooper, 2012 & Butters &Newell, 1978).

Although doctors is not an activity it is important for the youth to know they can go and ask question free of charge. The practice also has bulkbilling as well. This is all confidential practices. This may mean the youth wishes to seek alternative advice or a different doctor to which their family sees. It allows the youth to grow as a person as they start to develop their adult life.

There is a young men's group, where all they talk about is men's things. This ranges from relationships to jobs. There is also a Girls talk group, where they also talk about anything. Both these groups go on outings but it is all dependent on funding. This allows the youth to build relationships with in their gender group and with youth going through the same troubles as them. This may allow the youth member as well to get advice that points them in the right direction to achieving their goals. with having these two groups it may allow community development, character building and cultural adjustments within the group, as there may be new youth in the area wishing to meet others or they can express themselves in certain ways amongst the group to build their character. (Cooper,  2012 & Butters &Newell, 1978).

Drop-ins is allowed through the days. They have 2 pool tables, table tennis, computers, Xbox, PlayStation, big projector for movie nights and more. This mean the youth can get help with the school work which they may be embarrassed to ask at school in front of the class and also with the youth centre be a de-stressing zone. It can be to the benefits of the youth doing such activities at the end of the da or even on the weekends as it allows the youth to laugh with their new friends or make new ones.

All of these activities that the youth have available to them allows them to grow as a person. They create self-discipline, respect for others and the programs allow the youth members to actively participate into changing their lifestyles.

I think that the Swan City Youth Service in Midland, is a great place for youth even if they do not think they fit into society. They are sure to find a place where it suits them as they will find an activity where everything is taken off their mind. Although some activities cost to participate in, but this allows a qualification in the end,  they still provide great services for the youth and have a safe environment to be in.
